Harlem community.
Thank you all for joining in support of this evening,
Harlem community School state of the district tonight,
I feel honored to represent the Community Education Council.
Stay here and the rock past president,
your present and hopefully a piece of the district's future as
president of the newly minted Harlem Community Education Council,
I live with empathy,
humility and lesson and understanding of the past.
As well as the change agent.
The Harlem Community Education Council leads with knowledge and
understanding amongst the changing dynamics of a community in
healing and restoration. We are supportive of the parents,
students and educators in the district.
We have partnership and strive to deliver excellence amongst all
stakeholders through collaborative actions.
My first order of business as president was to understand what
my role is in changing the narrative of the CC both physically
and mentally to align with permission of the Harlem Community
Schools district and the Mecca framework.
The CC of district five is effectively now the Harlem Community
Education Council,
the Harlem Community Education Council aligns with mindfulness
by building relationships inside and outside of the district.
Enlightening the community with information on education and
programs aligned with our social emotional framework to build
the whole South.
In order to reimagine the Harlem Community Education Council,
I visited most of our 23 schools to engage with the leaders of
the building.
Get to know them and learn what their visions for their schools
are and how this is being done.
So every stakeholder knows their vision.
I wanted to see what programs are being offered,
interactions with the staff and students on their turn as well
as understand the data for their individual schools I needed to
understand so we can offer realistic solutions of what the CE C
can and will provide.
I also encourage the other members of this council to go out and
visit their respective schools as liaison excellence is built
upon leadership and a willingness to always learn.
Each H DC meeting begins and ends in a timely manner as the
agenda is closely followed. As business is always first,
a a quorum is set at the beginning of every meeting to ensure
efficiency and respect for all. After all presentations,
there's an opportunity for questions and clarification to ensure
comprehension capacity building priority three is understanding
equity is not the same for each person.
Building council skills through engagement and district wide P
DS with opportunities to learn with all school leaders such as
the school called Science of Reading Course.
Collaboration is having the full respect and support of the
superintendent as well as his team.
While being transparent with one another is essential to
building as president of the Harlem Community Education Council,
I believe in uniformity as a show of alignment.
As you will see many black polo shirts out in the audience.
Mhm.
Um Sorry, I lost.
Um This is District five, showing support and solidarity.
This evening,
the HCC has changed its logo as you will see to the left of me,
this signifies change in the colors aligned with the reimagined
district logo. However, uniform, we are not conformed,
meaning we believe in collective decision making,
the respect to individuality.
No one person moves as council moving forward.
The goal of A CE C is to create three workshops for parents and
phonetics, vocabulary,
as well as comprehension to continue forging relationships and
inviting others into our safe space.
As I moved through our schools, many which are co located.
I took note of how these building leaders communicate,
support and implement through collaborative action.
I was impressed by the building.
We are currently in three schools, CS 200 an elementary school,
the Mickey Mantle School ad 75 school,
an FDA a middle high school functioning individually yet
thriving just like one just like our district.
It gives me pleasure to introduce the next speaker Frederick
Douglas Academy principal Ayesha Fullerton.
